Abstract
INTRODUCTION Malaria still remains the most frequent parasitic disease on the world with, in 2022, 249 million cases and 608,000 deaths worldwide. Malaria control is compromised by the spread of the parasite's resistance to available antimalarials. The objective of our study is to characterize the Plasmodium falciparum resistance genes to common antimalarial drugs in semi-urban areas of Burkina Faso. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a prospective cross-sectional study whose collection took place from June to October 2021 and from June to October 2022 in five health facilities in Burkina Faso. The molecular analysis based on PCR-RFLP took place from January to June 2023 at Centre National de Recherche et de Formation (CNRFP) to determine resistance genes such as Pfcrt, Pfmdr1, Pfdhps, and Pfdhfr. RESULTS A total of 150 samples were analyzed giving a prevalence of 46.67, 1.33, 0.67, 20, 82, and 4.67%, for Pfcrt 76 T, Pfmdr1 86Y, Pfdhps 437G, Pfdhfr 51I, Pfdhfr 59R, and Pfdhfr 108N mutations, respectively. There are no mutations observed Pfdhps 540E and Pfdhfr 164L positions. However, mutation on Pfdhfr 59R position was the most common. In addition, triple mutation (Pfdhps 437G + Pfdhfr 59R + Pfdhfr 108N) was found with a low frequency which is 0.67%. CONCLUSION Surveillance of Plasmodium falciparum resistance markers to antimalarial drugs, remains one of the priorities in the context of the control or malaria elimination.

Abstract
Malaria remains the most common parasitic disease on the planet, with 229 million cases and 409,000 deaths worldwide in 2019, including 274,030 children under the age of 5. It is one of the most important infectious diseases in the world and its control is compromised by the spread of the parasite's resistance to antimalarial drugs. This study aims to review the literature of resistant Plasmodium falciparum genes over the past twenty years. One hundred and five (105) articles were collected and read while the resistance of P. falciparum was being studied. Several P. falciparum gene resistances antimalarial drugs were discovered over the past twenty years. The most recent one is the Kelch13 gene of P. falciparum (Pfkelch13) which has showed resistance to artemisinin in Asia. In Africa, this gene represents a potential candidate for resistance to artemisinin, although no resistance was reported.

Abstract
The implementation of mass drug administration (MDA) campaigns of albendazole (400 mg) and ivermectin (150-200 μm/kg) since 2001 has helped to change the epidemiological profile of lymphatic filariasis (LF) in many health districts in Burkina Faso. From 2002 to 2016, 14 rounds of MDA have taken place in the Central East zone, with therapeutic coverage exceeding 65%. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the impact of MDA in the fight against LF at 12 sentinel and spot-check sites. This descriptive cross-sectional study surveyed subjects aged 5 years and older between April and July 2017 at these 12 sites. The blood smear performed on nocturnal samples was used to diagnose Wuchereria bancrofti infection. The study included 4364 subjects. Their mean age was 20.55 years with a standard deviation of 14.22 and a range of 5 to 96 years. The overall prevalence of microfilaremia was 0.62% (27/4364), with rates exceeding 1% at three (3) sites. The average microfilaremia density was 106 μf/mL. The overall prevalence of morbidity was low (0.91%), predominantly lymphedema (0.60%). The MDA strategy has helped to reduce the prevalence of LF significantly in Burkina Faso, but some outbreaks still have microfilarial prevalence greater than 1%. Continuation of the additional 2-year strategy with improved adherence to treatment and vector control would help break LF transmission.
